We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
Kentucky- Andy Beshear is a popular incumbent moderate democrat governor who's father was governor from 2007-2015. He wasn't expected to lose only a few polls show it being close, so it wasn't a surprising outcome especially when the Republican candidate was so generic and not popular especially regarding the Taylor case which led many Black's to consider him a traitor. His campaign was very mediocre with no passion. Trump's endorsement didn't help him gain support and at best helped him lose by less points than he should had. The result might be disappointed for some Republicans but doubt any were shocked by it.
Virginia - This was another race where democrats were expected to win so once again it wasn't a surprising result. Republicans had hope that the results of the 2021 Governor election could led to them gaining full control in a state where Joe Biden won by 10 points in 2020 but it seems that the current Virginian governor Glenn Youngkin wasn't able to do it. The result does destroy any possibility of Youngkin running for president at least for 2024 as he was hoping a Republican victory would vindicated his support and popularity in a heavily blue leaning state but it didn't transpire. The only bright side for Republicans in this election was that they narrowly failed to capture the state senate and also narrowly lost control of the house of delegates losing each by 2 seats. Another important thing was that Republicans here try to run a non-Maga campaign and try to be more moderate like Youngkin did in 21 but it seems it didn't help push any moderate or independents to their side.
Mississippi- Unlike Kentucky and Virginia, this race the Republicans were favorite to win. The Republican had the incumbent governor advantage and Mississippi is a deep red state. Now the race was expected to be someone competitive due to the fact that the previous governor election in 2019 was decided by Five Points which was unexpected in a deep South Red State like Mississippi. Another reason why it was considered to be competitive was because the Republic governor was being accused of corruption. The Democratic governor who is related to Elvis Presley try running a moderate campaign and try to focus on getting the youth and black vote to come out heavily for him which it seems didn't happen that's why he didn't come close to winning the race that being said the Republicans did win the race by less points than in 2019.
Ohio- Ohio wasn't having any elections, they were hurting two Deliverance regarding adding rights to abortion to the States Constitution and legalizing the usage and distribution of marijuana. Again both were expected to be approved so the result wasn't surprising and all it did was showed that the abortion issue is a losing one for the Republicans hence why Trump has been last Hardline regarding abortion unlike other Republican presidential candidates. Of course this doesn't mean that Ohio is a swing state it's been widely accepted by political pundits in the US that Ohio is a safe Republican state and it's mostly because of Trump and democrats shifting to the left on other issues.
The results of yesterday's elections has no consequences to the upcoming elections in 2024 as it showed that the polls were correct this time and the expected results happened. Also recent polling shows most Republicans candidates winning against Biden in election ahead to ahead or even with RFK Jr involved. Trump who is expected to win the GOP nomination is lead Biden by 4 points. This show that yesterday's election wasn't a referendum on Biden and his policies but mostly just focus on candidates in those specific. That's being it also shows the incompetence of the GOP leadership specifically Ronna McDaniel and Mitch McConnell who didn't help many candidates with funding or campaign. I expect calls for change in leadership whether that change will happen or not is unsure.
🇲🇽- Mexican Cartel Drone Operator seen stalking a Mexican Marine Convoy in Mazatlán.
This isn’t much of a surprise, Cartel members have reportedly been joining the Ukrainian Foreign Legions en masse to hone drone operation and close quarters combat skills.
Since many of them are starting to return home, and now training other members of their cartels, i wouldn’t be shocked to see a new level of militarization in these organizations.
📝 🇪🇺 🇫🇷 Mario Nawfal on X: Europe's riots are just the beginning. The real economic shock hasn't even arrived yet.
I spoke with economist Philip Pilkington about the unrest spreading across France, Italy and Albania.
He thinks we're watching the early stages of something much bigger.
One statistic really caught my attention.
According to Pilkington, France's inflation-adjusted household food consumption has fallen roughly 6.4% since 2022. He suspects the poorest households have suffered far steeper cuts.
Now add another surge in energy prices.
Pilkington pointed to rice futures rising 70% this year, wheat and sugar climbing 40%, and fertilizer shortages threatening next year's harvest.
His prediction is that the worst food inflation could arrive this winter or next spring.
And there's a political problem sitting right on top of it.
Governments across Europe are already deeply unpopular. People are struggling to afford basic necessities, and another prolonged energy ...
🇨🇦🇨🇦🗳 Alberta votes on leaving Canada; separatist movement likely to outlast expected defeat
Alberta holds a nonbinding referendum on Monday on whether the western province should secede from Canada, a debate many believe will not be settled by what is widely expected to be a defeat for the separatist cause.
Polls have consistently shown that a majority of Alberta voters oppose splitting from Canada. Economic grievances have fueled the independence campaign in the province, which is home to 5 million people and slightly smaller than Texas despite having one-sixth the population.
The Alberta separatist movement adds to the pressures on Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, who has made defending Canada's sovereignty a central mission as he confronts US tariffs and President Donald Trump's repeated calls for Canada to become the 51st state.
Many Alberta separatists believe the Liberal Party-led federal government in Ottawa has constrained the Conservative-governed ...
My jaw literally dropped listening to this
There is a Muslim pilot who works for United Airlines that regularly makes pro-terrorist organizations posts on his social media
The Muslims name is Ibrahim Mossallam. He works on the Board of CAIR New York, which is linked to the Muslim Brotherhood
He made an October 7, 2023 Facebook post calling the Hamas attacks “resistance by a brave people.” United suspended him with pay while investigating but the Pilots Union got him his job back and he went back to flying planes in America
Since then the pilot has been temporarily resuspended for flying because of his extreme religious beliefs and posts but he is 100% still employed. He is still getting paid on suspension
I looked into this guy and he is VERY involved in Muslim organizations
- CAIR-NY lists him as Board Vice-President and describes him as a professional international airline pilot who is “very active in shaping the Muslim youth community.”
- He has also been listed as a board ...
